I would like to recommend that if anybody needs to ROOT their device, PLEASE use a way created by one of XDA's own developers.

XDA has concerns about security issues when using VROOT.

The staff is currently in talks with VROOT to remedy these issues.

The issues are with the rooting program, the super user app may be OK. I don't think it was looked at but if it connects to a server somewhere, it may have the same personal information issue.

Thank you for the cooperation in this matter,

Thabks mate, I didn't know it. I slightly modified my post after learning from you. Thanks again. :D
[Xperia Z1 General] diego9016:
Then what's the best way to root the Z1? If VRoot isn't safe, which should I use?

Thanks in advance.
[Xperia Z1 General] mpmaheshbabu:
Sorry to disappoint you but as of now this is the only way to root z1. Hope some developer comes up with a secure way to root z1 soon.

Check this post in order to Root. I have used it also with no issues.

[HTC Butterfly] vcyrusv:
Hi,

I have a big problem. My phone restarts after 20 sec because the process "system" stoping, my battery icon continously shows charging, no network and I can't go into reboot menu after pressing the power button.

I had unlocked my bootloader with this description http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2150794.

Then I flashed the rom ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2184706 ) but it don't start. After that I flashed the boot.img from the first page of the rom thread. I power on my Butterfly, the HTC icon comes but after 3 sec I can only see colored and black vertical stripes. Then I noticed my mistake and flashed the right boot.img from this rom but nothing changed.

Then I flashed many versions of the stock roms, the devices now boot into the rom but now I have the problem with charging and reboot. I Tryed also many custom roms like "TeamA4TWBOAButterflyV5.2" or "virtuous_butterfly_plus_v.1.0.0" but I have this problem with all of these roms.

I have the x920d, my bootloader is tampered unlocked and my cid is htc_033.

Can anybody help me? Did I something wrong or is my device broken? Maybe I flashed the wrong stock rom? I need a stock rom for x920d for germany.

Sorry for my bad english.
[HTC Butterfly] Bassie39:
When the phone is also from Germany you have a x920e check in bootloader should be dlxu and not dlxub1 if it is dlxu you can use virtuous Rom the Russian version

---------- Post added at 12:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:12 AM ----------

If you need stock recovery and boot I also have twrp backup of stock 4.2.2 and there is also a cwm backup of 4.1.1 online
[HTC Butterfly] vcyrusv:
on the backcover of the device is written x920d

[HTC Butterfly] vcyrusv:
ok now I see it

DELUXE_U = dlxu

I try the virtuous rom
[HTC Butterfly] vcyrusv:
virtuous russian version is for x920e but dlxu is x920d

hm I am not sure
[HTC Butterfly] vcyrusv:
Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!

It works.

But what is dlxu x920e or x920d?
[HTC Butterfly] Bassie39:
Dlxu deluxe u is x920e and deluxe ub1 dlxub1 is x920d some other butterflys from Germany say x920d also and they are x920e they have different hardware

You can also run backup of 4.1.1 and sense 4 and then get ota to 4.2.2 and sense 5
[HTC Butterfly] vcyrusv:
Thanks!!
[HTC Butterfly] User1977:
I had the same problem. After updating OTA to Android 4.2.2 I had problems with the new OS. The battery life was shorter as before and the device got warm every time, even when I only used the browser or the E-Mail app. Therefore, I decided to make a downgrade to Android 4.1.1. Unfortunately, the downgrade hasn't worked for me because the RUU file was corrupted.

Therefore, I tried to flash a custom rom but no rom worked for me, with all custom roms I got a black screen and a boot loop. My device is from Media Markt in Germany and it seems it's also the x920e. However, on the back cover I can read x920d.

The only way to get my phone back to life was restoring a CWM backup from this Russian forum:

http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=433096&st=360

After a few months I wanted to give the Android 4.2.2 a new try and flashed the stock recovery to get the OTA update but when the device tried to install the update I got a warning triangle in the recovery and nothing happened.

When I get S-Off on my device, will all custom roms and official OTA updates work for me?

Has anybody tried the S-Off procedure on http://rumrunner.us/downloads-2/? Will it run with my device?

We do have garwynn on board, he was a great dev back on the Epic 4G Touch.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stafly17:
I understand it takes time. Im not really *****ing. But... my argument is that i got the phone a month ago. Before it launched and provided the dumps and files for the other versions. And havent really rlhear/received any word on anything.

Im just anxious, i love the g2. But at heart im a samsung maniac. And the lack of dev support for the sprint version is making me want to just go buy a note 3.

Hopefully i didnt step on anyones toes, i know what these devs are capable of. And i am not asking for anyone to do something for me without anything in return... but i provided dumps and nfc.apks and everything and not so much as a "we can look into it" out of anyone.

So....

Patiently waiting....

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craiigman:
So I know the phone is 1080p, which means 1920x1080. But since the phone is portrait that turns into 1080x1920, right?

But that's good if I want a wallpaper for just 1 home screen and no scrolling. But if I have 2 home screens and want scrolling, do I need a 2160x1920 wallpaper?

But then if I have three, does that mean I need 3241x1920?

Or am I just going too far? But 1920x1080 wallpapers in landscape will just zoom in won't they?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dirk:
Yes, yes, no, yes, yes.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gotzaDroid:
2160x1920 is the size of the stock wallpapers. GEL will adjust the scrolling based on him many home screens you have.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ritchea:
This wallpaper is the correct resolution, but what's causing the gap below notification bar? That's Nova launcher. Thanks for any help.

EDIT: It was the MultiWallpaper app setting.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xda6969:
Also, each launcher can call for a different wallpaper size. 2160x1920 is what the stock launcher calls for. Does Nova call for the same size?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ritchea:
Yes, from previous phones, I believe it does.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xda6969:
When I used Nova, I believe it actually stated what size it was looking for when setting the wallpaper.

i modded facebook messenger 2.7.2 to allow sms and mms replacement on all rom.

the original one from playstore, sms/mms menu doesn't appear on ics and cm10, so i modded it to masked phone as htc one x and its working great with chathead and all :p

this is the last one before latest 3.0.1 from playstore which they disable ability to handle sms/mms completely.

clear data and uninstall the official one if u already got it installed, wont able to overwrite the original as signing key is different.

after install, enable sms/mms from its setting.

Game compatibility is based on device+rom combination, not just device or rom alone. May be they didn't make it compatible with HTC One+kit kat yet. mail/request the devs of the game, since HTC One is one of the hot devices, i don't think it will take them long to fix this.

sorry meant to post this in VZW note 3 forum my bad. I will repost if someone can delete this
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] ProximaC:
I turn on my phone, open Google Voice Search, and ask it a question, and the answer comes from the watch. This seems to be the only app that does this, all my other notification sounds and media sounds come from the phone normally, but Google Now wants to talk through the Gear. It's not a big deal if I'm wearing the watch, but if it's on the charger upstairs and still paired, Google Now is useless because the replies are from another room.

I went as far as uninstalling Gear Manager and resetting the Gear and starting over from scratch and it still works the same way.

Anyone else have a similar issue and found a solution?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] shayind4:
Just checked mine. Works fine via phone S4 and not Gear.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Artimis:
Try opening Google Search -> Menu -> Settings -> Voice and uncheck "Bluetooth Headset" at the bottom and see if that resolves your issue.

I do believe that was the issue! Thanks!

Good to know they are trying to make it less bulky... I remember iPhone 4 one literally triples overall thickness. I might consider getting one.

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mauam:
I think you can port any rom for our device, but be aware that some things may don't work. Well you need to read some more stuff to learn more (don't take me wrong), I think you know that can be a little complicated & you don't need to build or port, whatever, in 5 minutes right? Take a bit longer to do some really good. Well I wish you good luck.

So we got our shiny new N3's... we all (well 98% of us love them... lets not get technical about the % lol)... the xda devs started working on root...which is awesome.. having some issues getting root figured out (always the case on new and newer devices).....

Really though. What's the point of rooting? It can void your warranty. Possibly set of Knox.. and up until now there is only 1 one click type root function that is under speculation(will leave the name out for threads sake)... which I will not use. If you root do you get rid of alot of the licensing checks on apk's? We always have a lot of mods that we can add. I agree the bloat ware blows... but its still quite fast.... and if u got a nice size sd card... it doesn't matter that much... We can't flash roms yet so thats a negative for now.... So again.. what's the real point to root?

I'm sure nobody that's rooted cares that much to do so.. but if you feel inclined... explain some real solid reasons for rooting.. and the method that works without tripping knox.(this phone will eventually go back to verizon).... if you need to pm me please do so....
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frieked:
Seriously, just do a search. This has been discussed ad nauseum: http://xdaforums.com/sitesearch.php?q=root or not

If you're the type of person that has to ask, then rooting probably isn't for you.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pfhortune:
I root to remove bloatware, customize the phone in ways that are otherwise impossible, and just to have the freedom to do whatever I want (at least within the confines of the locked bootloader, grrr). I have used iOS for years, and my main issue with it was the restrictions Apple placed upon the system. I would find x or y thing I didn't like, but had no control over it. I fail to see the point of Android if you can't do what you like to it. Otherwise it's just a locked-down OS from a different vendor.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loopers:
I've rooted every device I've ever had on android.... 4.3 is starting to get to the point where we have most of the bells and whistles... Now I don't get down to the coding and programming (how many of us really do) but I love to take advantage of things that otherwise couldn't... simple app mods don't incline me enough to lose warranty. I rom probably would... Just saying it's not that i'm a dummy not understanding what root is... it's that its kind of iffy at the moment.... if someone knows 100% that it won't trip knox and you can revert back I'd give it a shot... I haven't seen that option yet that is 100% proven and cleared by xda or any other reputable sites.....

(pm me if there is something i need to know... i hold no one accountable)

only thing i could see as a definite positive to me is rom toolbox... amazing app.... able to freeze apps/back up etc..

(root would be better then too i'm sure(devs making things proven more and more)) shutting down svoice would be good too.... alot of that stuff would take a rom to really be a "kitkat" so i don't see the rush and still see no real reason to root at the moment..... anyone else? lol

that link sent me to a page with seveal posts and didn't see the one that you quoted.. nauseum? repost?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TabGuy:
Well, only if ROMs are available.

I'm with the original poster on this subject. I've rooted and ROMed my phones since forever. But the goal was to change the ROM. Until a ROM is available for the N3 there's no compelling reason to root. Yeah, TiBu is nice to use but Helium is adequate. (I used Helium to move my apps from N2 to N3).

Getting rid of bloatware? That's a political decision, not a practical one. People say that because "they're rebelling against the man." This phone is so ridiculously fast that bloatware does nothing to harm performance. If you don't like seeing it in the app tray then just use a launcher that lets you hide things in the app tray.

Don't like Touchwiz? I haven't found a ROM that I like either. TouchWiz is not perfect, but neither is AOKP, Omni, CM or many other ROM interfaces.

Yes, my Galaxy Tab 10.1 (original Tab) is rooted with a 4.3 ROM. It's the only way to get past ICS. But phones are different. I get a new one about every 6 months or so. I don't worry about what Verizon will do with the N3 in 2015. Most people on XDA are similar, so it's a moot point to argue about lack of support down the road.

I keep watching but there's been no compelling reason for me to root this phone. I want to, yeah, but where's the reward other than the pure joy of rooting? Most respond here with vague things about doing it their way, bloat or all of these apps that make life wonderful. I say show me. And it must be compelling. I want to, I just can't justify it.
